A lovely Arts and Crafts period 830 silver high relief rose Skønvirke brooch circa 1900. This antique 2-1/8" x 1-5/8" pin has a long c-clasp and it is marked simply 830. It is quite likely this piece is Scandinavian, it is entirely consistent with early Skønvirke ("beautiful work") made popular by fine Scandinavian silver makers. It greatly resembles early Bernard Hertz work, but is not signed, other than the 830 silver mark...

A striking and colorful bracelet with sterling wire wrapped caged raw stones by Modernist Arthur King who had a shop on Madison Avenue in New York City in the 1960's. The stones include rose quartz, amethyst, clear quartz, and topaz. The bracelet measures 8 1/2" end to end but the hook clasp can be linked to an inner ring to make the length shorter and have the end stone dangle which may have been the intent of the maker. This piece is in fine original condition and weighs 43 grams. Signed King ...

We have an early cuff and earring set that is marked with only Mexico Sterling. The filigree is thick and heavy. The frame going around is firm. The curls are precise and great care was made for the prongs that hold the stone to have the feel for the rest of the design with filigree loops.

This is a substantial set weighing 74 grams. T...

Enrique Ledesma high sheen Mexican silver work of art weighing 50 grams and having a height of 7/8th of an inch. My pictures truly can not capture the beauty of this bracelet. In my hands the obsidian is BLAZING and I could not get one photo of it. There are reflections in the pictures, no loss or damage. An excellent example of Ledesma workmanship at a time before lazers were used to cut the jewelers stones.

When I first saw these very old Margarita signed Vintage Mexican Silver Earrings I thought they were incredible and very special. I went back again and again to see them as the price was extremely high. After more looking I really felt these were not just rare but monumental. They are 3.5in. long and 1.5in. High. One photo shows a slice from the side and you can see there are cut out layers. I do not know how but when you put these on they are comfortable. You would think for something as large ...

A sterling silver link bracelet by Guglielmo Cini. Measures 7" long and 7/8" across. Hook clasp holds securely. Marked G. Cini Sterling. In very nice condition. Nice weight and well crafted.

Cast as a lion's head and upper body, this ring is especially compelling for its intricate detail. The lion's mane continues from the head down to the ring's shoulder, and the tail rises from the band on the opposite side. It shows hardly any wear; the patina on the lower band suggests there is some age to the ring. The ring is unmarked and is sized to 6 ½; the lion's head measures about ¾ inch wide and ½ inch high. Weight: 9.5 grams

This silver pin evokes the late Arts and Crafts era with its hammered-look surface and serpentine vines, though it is definitely later. The applied coral-colored glass bead centers offer a nice splash of color. The hooded clasp completes the artisan look. The piece was probably made during the late 1950s-1960s to imitate the popular Scandinavian aesthetic of the time. It tests for silver, but not definitively for sterling, so could be European in origin. It is unmarked. The pin measures 2 1/2 in...

These mid-century earrings are composed of rectangular and concave gilded sterling silver plaques enameled in a deep blue with a linear design under the glaze. The blue shows much brighter than in the images and more of a contrast with the two raised ridges of gilded sterling that decorate the center. They are secured by screw backs in good working order, and are signed Balle 925 for Øystein Balle of Norway. They measure 1 inch long by 3/4 inch wide. Weight: 10.1 grams

This double-hinged bangle, a mid-century design by Sigfredo Pineda, features a central oval amethyst cabochon, framed in sterling silver and highly polished.

The push-down clasp is in good working order, and there is a long, delicate safety chain attached by soldered rings. The inner band exhibits th...
